Imagine waking up because you heard an unfamiliar “beeping” sound at 5:15 a.m. One mom experienced this strange wake-up call and decided to investigate.
Grabbing her camera, Brooke Scheurn discovered that the noise was coming from her toddler, Asher, who was up to something in the kitchen.
Sneaking a peek, she caught Asher making popcorn for his sister, Clove, depositing the bowl in her crib before enjoying some himself.
In a disbelief-filled moment, she uploaded the video on TikTok, captioning it, “you’re not going to believe this, I promise.”
Asher’s gesture is not just adorable, studies have shown siblings’ relationships can influence their generosity. A Journal of Adolescence study with 308 teenage sibling pairs found sibling closeness correlated with increased generosity.
Despite Asher and Clove’s young age, their bond is heartwarming and bodes well for the future of their relationship.
While it led to an early wake-up call, Scheurn was elated, seeing Asher’s kindness. Since then, Asher continues to surprise his sister with small treats while she sleeps.
This loving act, while a simple gesture now, captures the sweetness of their sibling relationship and may pave the way for future closeness.
